Bluethroat
Lucky day! I went to the salt marsh, mainly to look for some seafowl, but what I got was a Bluethroat 🙂 All pictures without tripod using the D500 and the Sigma 150-600.
Attracted by the feeder
Haven’t done a lot of bird shooting in my backyard recently. Here’s an Eurasian Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus) that was attracted by the feeder in the shadbush which is starting to bloom.
Buseu 2018

The sessions were good but I was not running with luck. Lost several times the tracking while the eagle and the Red and Black Kites were […]
Cuxhaven – Ruddy turnstone
Good but not brillant weather for another look at Cuxhaven’s Kugelbake area for some seafowl. Some Ruddy Turnstones around at the jetty. Shots were taken with the D500 and the Nikkor 200-400 (with and without TC-14).
